Hm, but if I place fiber cable throughout the house, then the ONT is in my office. The connection from "Hausanschluss" to fiber inside the house is passive, I guess?

Minimal radius for fiber: According to your link: It depends! (WOW!) So only Telekom technician (or underpaid Romanian subcontractor?) knows, which fiber is currently at hand at the time of cabeling. Bit of a black box...

2 questions open at that time:

- Does the "Hausanschluss" need an electric wall outlet as well? Or is it passive and only the ONT has a plug?

- What is the smalest radius you can bend the fiber to in a corner? 1-2 cm? 5 cm?

Same same, doesn't matter if I route fiber or RJ45 throughout the house/attic. Except when using "your" modems for old telephone copper shoe laces, with approx. 250-300 € investment.

***sigh***

Will have to think through, what is the most stable, sustainable way to go... But that'S why we are here, to find the options and there pros and cons.

Next you hope you're the only one subscribing, it's a shared medium. 😉

..as it's with my VDSL from Telekom in the same building right now anyways. I need the bandwidth mostly at daytime, when it get's croweded in there I'm gone.

I would need a least 2 holes in the 25cm massive ferroconcrete ceiling plate (1970's bunker...), as the way across the attic is shortest and no open conduit throughout the building. No fun!

Seriously? I have to lay down the Leerrohre? And drill the holes in the wall in the end?

Latest developments:

Adoption rate appears to be very, very lousy, so DT decided to have a propaganda stand in some public place arround here to get more subscribers. In the flyer they promise 20m of free (as in unpaid) fiber installation inside the building.

What's next?

I reset my PPPoE every night on purpose, get a fresh IP. Why are people so upset by Zwangstrennung? DynDNS is up again in seconds, no problem.

RE: Netzbremse. That explains that, I mostly do my webbrowsing from outside Telekom. Don't ask for details :-D

mildly OT, but...: After opening the wall box depicted above and moving the cables, my DSL went down. I cut the connection (just twisted some 10 times! no soldering!) and reconnected the ends and DSL came back.

checked the remaining cable residues with Ohm-meter, both apparently intact, so no idea what broke my DSL

can the connection be soldered? or is twisting the free ends standard? ***glotz***

@athurdent is the peering problem relevant only for Gbit? or even with lower bandwidth? my 120 Mbit DSL from Telekom is not that a problem for my use cases.

What is the problem with Zwangstrennung? I do that "manually" every night, line up again in very few seconds with fresh IP...

Which advantage has RJ45 over RJ11? I'm totally unsure to which cable I have to connect the RJ11 plug,,, is there some kind of cabeling plan for RJ11/RJ45 available?

I have no LSA tool (and no experience with that at all...) but only a cheap rj45 crimp tool. Sounds crazy to have 1.5 Gbit with homebake stuff like that.

Ha, new idea, much simpler!

I opened the wall box where the cabel to my office starts from (inside a TAE plug device) and found two unused cables to my office (red cables, see below). After the fiber is built and connected, the analog telephone line (in the TAE box) will go down and the two cables are free!

If I connect the cabels now going into the TAE plug with 2 free, red wires I have a FREE connection to my office, which I can use for these modems to connect the ONT with a sense in my office.

So with 2 modems G4201T I would have to cut the RJ! connector on the side for the ONT and connect which cable with which in the Hausübergabepunkt (see post above).

On the router-side I would have to find a TAE/F to RJ11 cable or cut the RJ11 from the cable and connect the cables from the wall directly to the RJ11 plug for the modem.

Correct? :-D

Yepp. two pairs, as currently two different Telekom accounts, one analog number (really!) and one DSL line.

As I wrote above, the "unused" pair of cabels (after switching the analog account to fiber) does not end in the correct room. Only the DSL pair of cables (I want to have functional even after fiber established) ends in my office, therefore I will have to connect these modems to the same two cables my DSL is delivered nowadays and should be delivered in the future in parallel to the fiber connection.

Both, DSL and and fiber, should use the same pair of cables in the end.

...no free cabeling at this point. And only the cable pair providing my DSL (to my router) ends in my office, i.e. the cable pair that will be still in use after the fiber will be installed.

Tinkering with that cable pair for connecting the modem you linked would mean to add two thin cables on the right side of the box and connect them in some way with the modem? Same then in the TAE-outlet in my office, correct?

I think the cabling in the house is only 2x 2 cables (two different phone numbers, different DT accounts), but you expect there to be 8 cables inside?

There is no lead seal or somthing for this DT cable box? The coax cable guys show up every few years to check the lead seal for there connection point inside the house (located directly besides the old DT cable box, but zero coax cabeling inside the house...).

Don't want to break the grey, ancient plastic housing of the DT cable box...
